Scrambled Pancakes, Anyone? Foodies Say 'World Is Not Ready For This'

Pancakes are a popular breakfast choice globally. This favourite dish has seen its fair share of experimentation over time. Now, a new culinary experiment with pancakes has taken the internet by storm. How? Well, just like scrambled eggs, a viral food has emerged named “scrambled pancakes.” Confused? A video demonstrating how to make this bizarre combo is doing rounds on the internet and we bet, it will leave you scratching your head.

The footage starts with pouring pancake batter onto a pan and scrambling it using a spatula just like how one would scramble eggs. Shared by a user named Archived Chef on Instagram, the overlay text humorously reads, “Don’t take this the wrong way but…you’ve been making pancakes wrong your whole life.” Once the scrambled pancake is cooked, the pieces are transferred to a plate. The process is repeated with another pancake. Now for the toppings, the scrambled pancakes are dusted with powdered sugar, topped with whipped cream and adorned with some blueberries. Voila! scrambled pancakes are ready to enjoy.

The video also features a pancake shaped like Mickey Mouse. The caption explains, “The Mickey Mouse shape was for my kid because she refused the scrambled ones.”

A user humorously wrote, “I make shitty pancakes anyway, maybe I won’t burn them this way.”

Another viewer playfully commented, “That ain’t pancake that’s pan crumble.”

One viewer remarked, “I think that’s so smart, especially for toddlers starting to eat solid food. It’s a time saver instead of making a whole pancake then cutting it up.”

A hilarious comment read, “You come over and cook pancakes like that and I’m instantly feeding you to sharks.”

Another added, “Clearly the world is not ready for this level change.”

An enthusiastic individual wrote, “Crispy edges all around? Count me in. You end up cutting the pancake into tiny pieces anyway.”

Many users pointed out the similarity to Kaiserschmarrn, a dish popular in Germany and Austria. One viewer noted, “Everyone calling them scrambled pancakes… This is basically what Kaiserschmarrn is, which is a popular(ish) dish in Austria and Germany. Right down to how they topped it even.”
